Media Lens challenges Andy Burnham over Atlantic circulation climate risk

Original: 'Has Andy Burnham Ever Heard Of The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation?' https:// medialens.substack.com/p/has-

The media watchdog Media Lens has published a piece asking whether Andy Burnham has heard of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, a major ocean current system whose weakening is a key climate risk. The article implies the Labour politician and likely leadership contender has overlooked the scale of the climate threat, drawing critical engagement from climate-focused political commentators.

Why now: Burnham is a prominent potential Labour leader, and critics are pressing him on his climate credentials.
